About our washroom sealing in Bury's Bank
Washroom joints need the right sealant, not whatever is to hand. Sanitary grades carry anti-mould additives, and neutral-cure versions avoid the damage acetoxy types can do to some metals, stone and mirror backings. In food areas, hygienic or food-safe sealants are used where food contact is possible. We work on accessible toilets and changing rooms, IPS panels and cubicles and showers, trays and wet room floors, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are users noticing mouldy joints and urinal joints that look unhygienic. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Bury's Bank? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
Farm shops, cafés and venues in converted rural buildings around places like Bury's Bank have busy toilets and kitchens. We plan the work around bookings and opening times.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Work for main contractors and building owners
Whether you are a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
What we can’t put right
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- A dripping waste or valve behind a panel
- Vanity carcasses that have swollen
- Hollow tiles or loose panels behind the joint
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Urinals and WCs
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Kitchens and tea points
- Vanity units and basins
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
Our process
We follow your site rules from the start: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. With the paperwork done, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact. Jobs in and around smaller places like Bury's Bank are usually planned as a single visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- First, the phasing is agreed so facilities stay open.
- Leaks, loose panels or damp are pointed out first.
- Failed sealant and residue are stripped out.
- The right sanitary or food-safe sealant is applied.
- We give you a reopening time for every room.
Preparing the site
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Let building users know which areas are affected

If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.
Related advice
Keeping the joints sound
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. We suggest:
- Keep washrooms out of use until we say the sealant has cured
- Don’t leave an open joint at a basin or tray
- Avoid scourers and harsh descalers on silicone
- Inspect washroom sealant regularly
Include sealant joints in your planned maintenance checks. Check for mould spots, splits, lifting edges and open joints at trays, basins and urinals and photograph anything new.
Water getting behind IPS panels and vanity units can swell the boards. Once that happens, a reseal won’t fix them.
What the job involves on each surface
Showers and trays
In staff, hotel and changing-room showers, the tray joint and wall corners take the hardest use. Every joint is stripped, degreased, dried and given a new bead.
IPS and cubicle panels
IPS panels and cubicle systems have joints at the wall, the floor and the worktop. They stop water reaching the panel boards.
Bury's Bank: questions and answers
Is a smaller place like Bury's Bank outside your area?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. London and every South East county are within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Will our hotel in Bury's Bank need to close for the work?
Almost never. The work is phased so most rooms stay available. Housekeeping and our team agree each day’s rooms.
Will you quote for a small job?
Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
For external joints, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
It depends on the product specified. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
